DJ
DJ was happy to finally meet the man that he was named after. His dad had always talked about Ridge and said that he really felt sorry for him. He had no real family, and he had told DJ that his mom had been willing to take Ridge in after Ridge’s grandmother died. But Ridge left with an aunt, his dad had no idea where he went or what happened to him after that.
When they arrived at the restaurant, DJ thanked his dad for stepping in and not making him spend the night in the hotel.
Tom smiled at his son, “You’re welcome, I know you probably want to sleep in your own bed tonight.”
Tom gave DJ a wink, he was sure that Noah would probably be sharing that bed with DJ.
Everyone enjoyed the meal, Noah and DJ were happy that their families were getting along well. At least the family that was there. Noah had told DJ about not talking to his dad since he came out as gay, but his brother and sister had always been there for him. Noah also told DJ that he talks to his mom every couple of weeks, but she calls him. Noah doesn’t call her in case his dad is in the room.
After they ate, Owen and Katie left to go to their homes. Tom and Beth gave DJ and Noah a ride to DJ’s apartment.
As they pulled up to the apartment, Beth asked, “Do you want us to drop you off at your place, Noah?”
Tom laughed, “Beth, I think you should stop asking so many questions.”
She looked to the back seat at DJ and Noah and sighed, “Okay, I’ll shut up.”
DJ said, “Thanks for dinner, you can pick us up at 8 for breakfast. Love you mom and dad.”
Beth said, “We love you too honey, we’ll see you in the morning.”
DJ locked the door behind him after he and Noah were inside his apartment. He turned to Noah with a smile and said, “Now, where were we before we were so rudely interrupted?”
Noah chuckled as he stepped up to DJ and wrapped his arms around him. Their lips were soon locked together, and their tongues were tangled in each other’s mouths.
DJ broke the kiss and said, “Shall we take this to the bedroom?”
Noah smiled, “Yes please.”
DJ took Noah’s hand and led him to the bedroom where they resumed their kiss. Noah stepped back and pulled DJ’s shirt over his head. He paused for a moment to admire DJ’s body, liking everything he sees. Noah ran his hand across DJ’s smooth chest, stopping to tweak each nipple. DJ shivered at Noah’s touch, much to Noah’s delight. DJ reached out and pulled Noah’s shirt off, also taking some time to admire Noah’s body. Noah was also hairless but was slightly more muscular that DJ. It was now DJ’s turn to run his hand over Noah’s chest and stomach; he loved the feel of Noah’s soft skin.
They moved back together for another kiss, their bare chests tight against each other. They paused their kiss to look into each other’s eyes, both with a smile on their face. They both kicked their shoes off and removed their socks. Once again they resumed their kiss, their hands on the other’s hips. They weren’t in a hurry like they had been on the last night they were together when they only sucked each other.
Noah started to unfasten DJ’s belt and pants. Once he was successful, he watched as DJ’s pants fell to the floor and DJ stepped out of them. He again paused to admire DJ standing there in just a pair of dark blue Tommy Hilfiger boxer-briefs. The bulge in those briefs was beginning to grow larger the longer Noah stared. DJ was feeling a bit self-conscience, but Noah gave him a reassuring smile.
They let their hands run over each other’s chests again. Noah let his hand brush across the now fully grown bulge that DJ was sporting. DJ let out a slight whimper and then began to unfasten Noah’s belt, followed by the button and zipper on his pants. Noah’s pants fell to the floor, and it was now DJ’s turn to take in the full sight of Noah standing before. The bulge in Noah’s red Calvin Klein briefs was now matching DJ’s.
Without a word being spoken, both pairs of underwear were soon lying on the floor next to rest of their clothes. They again embraced and fell onto the bed, their lips locked together. DJ broke the kiss and let his hands explore every inch of Noah’s body until he reached the hard cock that was sticking straight up. He ran his thumb over the drop of precum that had formed on the swollen pink head. DJ licked his thumb, smiled at Noah and took that glorious piece of meat into his warm, wet mouth. Noah exhaled and DJ began to bob up and down, starting every nerve in Noah’s body to dance.
Before Noah was past the point of no return, he pulled DJ up for another kiss. Noah wanted more than a blow job from DJ this time. He rolled DJ onto his back and kissed his way down DJ’s chest and began to give his cock the same treatment that DJ had given him moments earlier. The sounds DJ was making told Noah that he was giving DJ pleasure. Noah sensed that DJ may be getting close to climax, he let the tasty cock fall from his mouth. He moved down and began to lick DJ’s cum-filled nuts, again eliciting a positive response from DJ.
Noah pushed DJ’s legs up in the air. Before DJ knew what was happening, Noah ran his tongue across the rosebud that was now exposed. DJ gasped as Noah began to work over the hole with his talented tongue. Both young men were totally lost in the moment; the pleasure they were giving each other was indescribable. DJ’s head thrashed back and forth as he held on to his own ankles, Noah was still working over his hole.
DJ panted, “Will you fuck me?”
Noah gave his hole one more lick and smiled, “I will do anything you want me to.”
Noah moved up for another kiss as he rubbed his swollen love stick along the spit covered pucker. DJ grabbed Noah’s ass and pulled him in until he felt Noah’s nuts tight on his ass cheeks. They continued to kiss as Noah started to piston in and out, hitting DJ’s sweet spot with every stroke. With every stroke, the speed increased and the tighter DJ’s grip became on Noah.
DJ’s experience had been very limited up until this point, he never knew how good a cock in his ass could feel. Noah was also loving the feeling of having his cock sheathed with such a tight warm hole. As if it was choreographed, both felt their climax building, neither could stop it now even if they wanted to. DJ wasn’t even touching his cock when he felt the first spasm, Noah’s spasm also came within a second. They held each other tight as they spilled their love juices, DJ’s all over his chest and Noah’s deep inside DJ.
Another round of kissing and the pair lay there holding each other trying to catch their breath.
DJ said, “That was awesome.”
Noah chuckled, “Yes, it was.”
They cleaned up and crawled back into the bed and drifted off to a contented sleep in each other’s arms.
Ridge
I was thinking about Ollie’s question. I knew Noah was collateral damage and Carissa was dropped off at the ministry by her father. Who did set up DJ and Wyatt being taken? My gut told me that Wyatt’s mother was the one who contacted the ministry. But I knew Tom and Beth would never do that to DJ. He and Beth both told me that they still loved their son and accepted him as he was, they even seemed to like Noah. Maybe the tech guys will find an answer when they go through Anderson’s computers.
Blake walked into my office as I was pondering the question.
He asked, “What are you so deep in thought about?”
I shrugged, “Just thinking about all the loose ends we need to tie up.”
He nodded, “Yeah, I am thinking about that too. What do you think Sam and Max’s role in all of this is?”
I said, “They were genuinely surprised when we told them DJ, Noah and Wyatt were missing.”
Blake agreed, “I noticed that too. I just went back through everyone’s statements; they all say the same thing. Sam and Max were actually trying to help all of our victims.”
I sighed, “I think there might be more to their relationship then they have told us so far. I think we should talk to them now and if our hunches are right, we can let them go tonight.”
Blake nodded, “Yep, I’ll go get them. Do you want to talk at them together or separately?”
I said, “I think we can talk to them together. Bring them to room 2.”
I was waiting in the interview room when Blake returned with Sam and Max. I had them take a seat on the far side of the table. Both men looked scared, unsure of what was happening. I tried to put them at ease.
I started, “Well guys, we have just finished getting statements from the four young people we found at the ministry. They all have told us that you two were trying to help them.”
They both started to breathe again. Sam said, “Detective Ridgeway, we had no idea that those kids were kidnapped.”
I said, “So tell me what happened when you first met DJ, Noah, Wyatt and Carissa.”
Sam said, “We got up Sunday morning, and Reverend Anderson told us we had two new clients. They were replacing the two others that had left last Friday.
Max continued, “Once we started talking to them, we knew they didn’t want to be converted. We told them to play along and after about a month they would be able to see each other again.”
I was taking notes, so far everything was matching what DJ and Noah had told us.
I asked, “Did they tell you that they were abducted?”
Sam sighed, “Not really, but I guess we should have figured it out. They kept asking why they were brought here. I assumed they were dropped off by their parents, like we were.”
Blake asked, “What about Wyatt and Carissa?”
Max said, “Wyatt was there when we got up on Tuesday morning, just like DJ and Noah. Carissa was dropped off about a week before DJ and Noah.”
Sam nodded, “Yeah, I heard the Reverend telling her that her parents only wanted what was best for her.”
Ollie snorted and shook his head. He asked, “Is that what he told you when your parents dropped you off?”
Both men nodded, “Yes.”
Max said, “Honestly Detective, we had no idea Reverend Anderson was doing this. I mean we both knew the conversion therapy was a joke, but we didn’t know he was pulling people off the street. If we had known, we would have come to the police to tell you.”
I asked, “Do you know who drives the ministry’s van?”
Sam said, “The only driver I know is Jeff. I don’t know his last name.”
Blake asked, “Is he the only driver?”
Max answered, “He’s the only one I have ever seen.”
Sam added, “I did hear Jeff and Reverend Anderson talking one time. Jeff told Anderson that he would be seeing Brad and Greg later that day and would set it up. I have no idea what they were setting up, and I never heard a last name for Brad or Greg either.”
Ollie had been writing as we talked, he stood up and said, “I’ll go see if can find anything on them.”
He left the room as Blake, and I asked a few more questions. After another half an hour, I was sure they were telling the truth.
I said, “We will need you to testify and we may have a few more questions. If you promise not to leave town and be available, we will let you go tonight.”
Sam and Max gave each other an uncertain look. Sam said, “Detective, we really don’t have any place to go, and neither of us have much money.”
Max added, “We were kind of using the ministry for a place to stay since our parents kicked us out.”
I nodded, “Am I right to assume that you guys are in a relationship?”
They both slightly blushed, nodding their heads to the affirmative.
I stood and said, “Wait here for a minute, let me make a quick phone call.”
I returned a few minutes later, “I have a room reserved for you at the Regency Hotel, we’ll give you a ride to the hotel, a man named Phil* is expecting you. We’ll also pick up in the morning, and we can figure out what our next move is.”
Both guys let out a sigh of relief, “Thank you, Detective.”
Ollie returned to the room with a piece of paper; he handed it to me. There were copies of three driver’s licenses. Jeff Parker, Brad Mills, and Greg Michaels.
Ollie grinned, “Too easy Ridge. The ministry’s insurance company requires copies of all employee’s driver’s licenses. As long as they are using their real names, we even have their home addresses.
I smiled, “Nice work Ollie, I think we can go pick them up in the morning. Ollie, will you give Max and Sam a ride to the Regency Hotel? Then you can go home, I think we should call it a day.”
Ollie grinned, “Sure thing. I would be happy to.”
As they walked out the door, I said, “You can head out too Blake, we’ll talk to Joann and Anderson in the morning after we pick up our three guys. I have a feeling we know who grabbed DJ, Noah and Wyatt.”
Blake nodded, “I think you’re right.”
I asked, “Would you be able to give Matt Harper a ride back to campus on your way home?”
Blake said, “Of course, it’s right on my way. Are you leaving too?”
I said, “Yep, I’m just going to call Lucas to let him know I’m on the way. I’ll also let Hank Gorman know he can leave and to not expect any more calls from the good reverend.”
Blake left as I went back to my office and pulled my phone out. I remembered I had a voice mail from Devin; he must have a few more questions. I returned his call.
He answered, “Hey Ridge, thanks for calling me back.”
I said, “No problem, what can I do for you?”
Devin said, “I don’t mean to overstep, but after my talk with Wendy Nelson today, I did a little bit of research. I stopped by Joann Chandler’s church and her old office…”
I suddenly knew where this was going, I interrupted, “I should offer you a job.”
He asked, “What do you mean?”
I explained the events of the day and that I not only found DJ and Noah, but we also found Joann Chandler.
Devin said, “Wow, so Pastor Anderson was involved?”
I sighed, “Yes, I don’t know how I missed it five years ago. In my defense, she wasn’t kidnapped, she went with Anderson willingly.”
Devin chuckled, “I had a feeling there was something going between those two after I talked to the new pastor at the church. Even her co-workers suspected she found a boyfriend.”
I shook my head, “Yeah, they mentioned that to me too five years ago. I still don’t know why I didn’t follow up on that. My gut just told me something else was going on.”
Devin said, “Well, sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to tell you what I found out. I’m glad you seem to have your current case solved as well as finding Joann Chandler.”
I said, “I appreciate that Devin.” I paused and thought that Devin really was a good guy. Every time we talked this week, I could tell how smart and thorough he was. I knew I was going to go buy some of his books now and I was looking forward to reading the book he was working on, if it gets published.
I said, “We have a busy day tomorrow, but it has become a tradition with Blake, Ollie and me to go to the Pink Parrot after we solve a case. I’m sure we will be doing that tomorrow night, we would be happy to include you, if you would like to join us.”
Devin paused, “Well, that would be great, but my husband Mike is flying in tomorrow. I pick him up at 2.”
I said, “He is welcome to join us. Blake and Ollie always bring their partners and of course, Lucas will be coming as well.”
He said, “I’ll see what Mike wants to do, we have been apart all week. I’m sure he will want to go back to the hotel…”
I chuckled, “I understand, we don’t stay at the Pink Parrot too long. We are usually headed home before 8. Lucas and I would really like to meet Mike.”
Devin said, “I would like for him to meet you guys too. Call me when you are on your way to the bar.”
“I will do that, looking forward to seeing you again and meeting Mike.” I replied.
I ended the call and called Lucas as I started to walk out the door. It was about 9:00.
Lucas answered, “Hey babe.”
I smiled, “I’m on my way home, we got the bad guys.”
I could see the smile on his face in my mind, he said, “I’ll start heating up dinner and have a rum and Coke waiting for you.”
God, I don’t deserve him, but I am so glad he is in my life.
I walked through the door to my favorite part of the day. After Lucy gave me some love, so did Lucas, and he followed that up with a perfect rum and Coke.
Lucas grinned, “My Drake did it again. The good guys are home, and the bad guys are in jail.”
I gave him a kiss, “Yep, and I also solved an old case. Well, cleared it, I’m not sure is needed solved, but I figured out what happened.”
He gave me a puzzled look as I explained the Joann Chandler connection to my current case.
He just smiled at me as I talked, and we ate our dinner. I felt like I was rambling on, the adrenaline after I solved a case always made me to that.
I asked, “So tell me about your day. Anything exciting happen at work today?”
Lucas laughed, “Yes, but you probably already know about it.”
I furrowed my brow, “Know about what?”
He said, “Did Ollie have any news to share today?”
I nodded, “Yes, he did. I kind of forgot about that. I am so happy for him and Andy. Blake had some news too.”
Lucas asked, “Really, what’s that?”
I grinned, “He and Hannah are going to have another baby.”
His eyes went wide, “I thought after the last one, they were done.”
I chuckled, “They did too. Blake said he had an appointment at the doctor next week to take care of it.”
Lucas laughed, “Better late than never.”
I nodded, “I think once the shock wears off, they will both be happy. Blake was just a bit surprised.”
He said, “We have a lot to celebrate then.”
I said, “Yep, we have to wrap up a few loose ends tomorrow, but I think we will be making a stop at the Pink Parrot tomorrow night.”
Lucas smiled, “That sounds fun.”
“Oh, I talked to Devin before I called you. His husband Mike is getting in tomorrow, and I invited him to join us.”
He said, “Good, I was hoping we could meet him.”
I chuckled, “I don’t think they will be staying too long. I got the feeling that they wanted to get back to their hotel room as soon as possible.”
Lucas grinned, “What do think they want to do in their hotel room?”
I returned his grin, “The same thing I want to do right now in our bedroom.”
He jumped to his feet, “I can do the dishes in the morning, come show me what you want to do.”
